By Ranked #1574 - Tents October 26, 2008

this question is kind of ridiculous... so anyone who's had experience with this tent could answer.I do a lot of solo, light weight backpacking trips- so i really want to invest in a single, but i also go backpacking with one of my girlfriends a lot, so my question is this:If there were 2 smaller girls who didn't mind close quarters, who wanted to sleep in the spitfire, would they fit? :)

This is definitely a 1 person tent. I have spent a lot of time in it. I would recommend getting the 2 person model for $140.

Well, you'd better be really comfortable with each other. The tent is only three and a half feet wide at its widest point, 2'2" at the foot (the other arch pole) and nine feet long. I'd advise making that footprint on the floor with masking tape or something and see how it looks and whether you can fit in it, then decide.To put it in perspective, 18 + sq.ft. floor area is barely enough room for one person let alone two! It brings a smile to my face just thinking about this!Put your GF on top and you'll be fine!!!
